Bad quality

The story is good but the quality of product is very bad. The pages are not good according to the price charged. Besides the book and font size both are very small. I do not recommend this book.

I honestly do not know whether to give this book 5 stars for being one of the most completely engrossing, shocking, and emotionally absorbing pieces of literature ever written, or to give it 0 stars for being the most tragic, unendingly upsetting, disturbing book I've ever read. It was so completely absorbing and magical. I can’t even begin to describe it. Just like love and other abstract stuff, this book needs to be experienced. A must must must read.

Many a times I took the book, flipped through 3-4 pages and put it back in the shelf. And then finally I read it. And I loved it. This book is so utterly different from any other book I've read previously. In most of the love stories I've seen the protagonists are to epitomize all the goodness of human nature. They share, they care and all that.

I bought the book a few months ago,but its sheer size scared me off. Many a times I took the book, flipped through 3-4 pages and put it back in the shelf. And then finally I read it. And I loved it. This book is so utterly different from any other book I've read previously. In most of the love stories I've seen the protagonists are to epitomize all the goodness of human nature. They share, they care and all that. But here the author dared to rip open the true nature of human character and the way she did it was just amazing. You don’t always meet protagonists in a love story who are social outcasts. Now we are all a bit selfish in our heart and it’s quite natural, a survival instinct. We are not able to completely drive away the selfishness even when the circumstances demand it. Mitchell’s Rhett and Scarlett seemed to me very earthy and not some characters dropped from heaven. They are no ideal characters that one would like to be or dare to be, Yet one cannot help loving them.And I loved all the other characters. Each one has its own essence and contributed to enrich the story as a whole. It's a historical novel but unlike in other occasions I was never bored with the historical details presented in this book. They are so intertwined with the lives of the characters that I felt it’s a part of the story.The book has a twisted tragic end, an end one can never imagine of. Immediately after reading the book I cried the whole evening and the next day and the next. The characters, the dialogues, especially those at the end kept haunting me for days. I was so depressed for the last week. And now I can say, this story undoubtedly tops the list of love stories I've ever read. Now that I finished the book, I really miss Rhett, Scarlett and Melanie. It left me wanting for more which I'll never get. Though it has a sequel "Scarlett" by Alexandra Ripley but I've heard it has failed to keep up with the standards of 'Gone with the wind'. I wish Mitchell herself wrote a sequel to this. Reading the book was a hell of an experience. I can never forget Rhett and Scarlett. Yes, it has that much impact on me.

One, it a journey into a life that I, a city-dweller in the 21st century has never, and will never lead; two, it has characters you easily relate to and feel connected to; three, it is a very effective portrayal of life in its true unfair sense and not the perfect, ideal one that we read about in a lot of other books.

Rhet Butler is another reason I read this book again and again, and each time I read it, I find myself wistfully wishing men like that existed in real life!

Scarlet's character is another intriguing…There are just way too many things I love about this book!

Scarlet's character is another intriguing factor of the book. As you read along you love her, hate her, and wonder what on earth was she thinking; much like you do with the people in your life!

So all in all, I love the book. have read it at least 4 times, and it never gets boring!

LOVE it

This seminal work is not only a study of a culture that is lost and a war that has destroyed the very roots of a society but it is also the story of creation and destruction, of preservation and extinction and most importantly of growth and maturity and loss.

Awesome characterization, If you want to understand women(although it is impossible) it gives you great insights to the different facets of character of a woman. Margaret has evolved the characters quite greatly.Must read for people in Love or who lost there love(although girls may not like the ending) but it gives a great insight into the much overhyped word called love.
